Have you ever filed for bankruptcy?

No, I have never filed for any personal or business bankruptcy, nor have I ever been the target of any collection or foreclosure action. As an attorney, however, I have assisted clients file personal Chapter 7 bankruptcies and represented creditors in larger-scale business bankruptcy matters. As a Florida attorney I continue to defend clients in home foreclosure actions.
